Sunday's party was the kick off to an awesome week . We made some awesome Scullies and drank some awesome Sangria . Everyone that missed it well I am sure they will be at the next one . Those who came benefited on some of my pieces and learned how to design my favorite style (" The bohemian ") . To everyone's chagrin the party ended and the packing for Yosemite began .
A long five hour drive to the lovely destination of Yosemite . The car was loaded up and ready to go with two dog's , husband and my beautiful boy Ethan . The first four hours were a drag until Oak Hurst when the scenery changed to beautiful farms and then to beautiful Pines . Finally we pull in at The Pines Resort at the beautiful Bass Lake . Ahhhh yes I instantly see relaxation in my future and some yummy Mai Thai's ... made perfect and poured in a nice cocktail glass on the rock's as I lay pool side amidst the beauty of a lake nestled against the gorgeous pine tree's of Yosemite . The boy's left me pool side as they took the dog's to the lake . I joined them later and swam in the lake with my beautiful Bella . She was enjoying her swim while Jed was more interested in exploring the lakes surroundings and not interested in swimming at all but not minding the water .Or was he really looking for something to chase . At last three little duck's came waddling by and that's all it took for Jed to bolt out after them nearly taking off my arm . He swam all the way to the middle of the lake as the duck's got away . A happy Jed came swimming back to shore ready to do it all over again . He did not retrieve what he was chasing but happy none the less to have had the chase .
The smell of fresh green pine tree's and fresh air can make anyone start to feel the magic of the great Vortex in Yosemite a seventh wonder which everyone must see and feel . Truly spectacular rock's of all size's from the smallest pebble to the massive rock called Half Dome . While standing in the viewing area of Half Dome you must tilt your head back in order to get a perfect view of the massive size rock formation . A truly spectacular site to see . Each site was more breath taking than the next . I could not help but to feel zen and truly at one sharing the wonderful energy that was exploding by each natural wonder leaving me so blessed and grateful for the gift's given to man by Nature .
When not driving or hiking in Yosemite one must find a way to cool off and play . We decided to play on Bass Lake . Renting a boat for half day was quite refreshing and energetic as we played with tubes and wake boards . The view on the lake is just as magical as the sites of Yosemite has to offer . Making everything explode with color and beauty . Five hour's driving the boat around the lake goes by in a blink we were so thankful that we took the time to take in all the element's to enjoy each moment as we played in the water of this magnificent lake .
Before the trip ended we took on site seeing . And of course by car the amazing tree's are just as massive and fill the forest with every shade of green . These massive tree's are probably as tall as some of the tallest building's in New York city with each tree side by side filling up the entire forest . As we enter the middle of the park the forest of tree's turn to multi color's of green to light purple bloom's of lavender and tall blades of grass in between until a beautiful meadow open's with a burst of yellow shades of flower's and a creek at the bottom of these beautiful gigantic rock formation's . Breath taking and to truly enjoy the magic one must experience this site at least once your life . One word to describe the magic and the experience I would have to say " Spiritual " . The dog's even felt the energy and the magic of Yosemite . I can not wait to come back and see the sites unseen on this trip . For there is much much more to the beauty of Yosemite .
very very nice my love!
